Until the notion of social networking came from the mind of Mark Zuckerberg (though there was orkut then) in the form of Facebook, nobody might have ever imagined the popularity the way it has gained today. Zuckerberg, along with his friends created Facebook to fulfill the purpose of a college yearbook.

For many of us, it has become a social networking platform where the user joins the community and connects with their friends virtually. Technology has always been a part of negative aspects too and so is the Facebook. We can’t count the benefits the Facebook provides us but to our worry it manages to give us some concerns also:
